Isao TANAKA is a professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Kyoto University in Japan. He has joint appointments as a director of the Center for Elements Strategy Initiative for Structural Materials (ESISM), Kyoto University, Japan, a senior chief researcher of Japan Fine Ceramics Center (JFCC), Nagoya, Japan, and in the Center for Materials Research by Information Integration (MI2I), NIMS, Japan. He is also the leader of a Grant-In-Aid Project of Scientific Research on Innovative Areas of JSPS, Japan on “Nanoinformatics” (2014-2018) with eight other Pis in multiple institutes. His research area covers first principles theory and experiments in the field of inorganic materials science. He got international awards including Philip Franz von Siebold Prize from German Government in 2008 and Richard M. Fulrath Award from American Ceramics Society in 2004. He is an associate editor of the Journal of American Ceramics Society. He is author and coauthor of 364 papers mostly in highly prestigious journals which have gotten totally 8247 citations (h-index 42).
